This is my wifes daily driver. we traded in her old Cavalier which had its far share of Road racing, we never got to finish modding the Cav, but we need something more comfy to drive to work daily so we got this turbo Cruiser.
She loves this car, and from day 2 it was already on its way to being modded.
alot of the parts that went on the Cruiser was left over parts i had or acuired for/from my SRT-4. She is loving how this car is turining out. First time the car went to the Drag strip she ran against a 08 Mustang GT and pulled him by 0.2 sec. and the guy got upset that he was beat by a girl in a 1940s style milk truck, and parked his car and didnt race the rest of the night. Quite a few people after the run came over wondering what was in that Cruiser.
the car is alot fast now and keeps up with modded SRT-4 and on the street whenever she reves at someone and they hear that turbo spool and BOV fire, they tell her no. I guess its fear about getting beat by a girl in a milk truck LOL.
Our times for the Dragstrip are off because we live in a high desert, and our DA usually is around 8k to 8.8k ft. if we were closer to sea level you'd see around a full second come off that time. Ive seen bone stock vettes run 14.5 and stock GTO 6.0 run 15.0 its not the driver but just the lack of air in our area.
I wanna say Thanks to the staff at the Auto Skills Shop/ Carwash
